[QUOTE="georgieboy, post: 692129, member: 21186"] I know this is a little a harsh statement, but pls read that "I" am the one who can do without a midvalve and not you all can do without a midvalve. The last year i have done a lot of suspension fiddling myself and came to the conclusion that with my kind of riding, doing no big jumps etc, I can make my fork work with only the basevalve. I don't need the extra damping from the mid. The reason is that with the midvalve seeing so much oil, it is nessesary to use a lot of freelift and light stacks, to avoid harshness. This means that the stacks is bending a lot with fear of damaging. And i feel that with the amount of bending it is doing it is more like a checkvalve anyway. Stacks must not bend a lot, like light midvalves with big lifts, otherwise it is not sufficient in the first place. So I can understand with MX racers that they do need midvalves. They work with the extra damping from the midvalves in order to land big jumps safely. Only basevalves wld be to harsh for dealing with these loads. [/QUOTE]
